BLTouch Extension Cable – for CR-10S Pro V2

Automatic bed levelling is an incredibly popular upgrade for 3D Printers that does away with the stress of manual levelling. As with many other upgrades available, there is a wide range of automatic bed levelling sensors to choose from. One of the most popular options is the BLTouch sensor from ANTCLABS which makes use of a semiconductor hall sensor. Due to the vast and ever-expanding range of 3D Printers on the market, however, it is not always an easy task to install your new BLTouch sensor. BLTouch Extension Cables like this aim to bridge the gap between your sensor and the motherboard ports it needs to reach.

This BLTouch Extension Cable is supplied from Creality and ready to connect the BLTouch sensor with a motherboard that allows for JST XH 5-way connectors, such as the CR-10S Pro V2. Stocking more extension cables with different connectors makes automatic bed levelling more accessible to Makers. The cable provides a standard mini micro JST connector to fit into the BLTouch itself. However, on the other end of the cable, the provided head is a JST XH 5-way connector. Usually, BLTouch cables must plug into the servo and z-min end stop ports of your motherboard, but on the CR-10S Pro V2, a handy adapter board sits under your extruder, where this BLTouch Extension Cable easily plugs in, ready to install your BLTouch sensor.

Although Creality 3D have been working within the industry since 2014, their addition of the Creality CR-10 series is what really catapulted them to the front line of competition, as it offered substantially better quality compared to other 3D printers – while simultaneously reducing the cost and complexities of the machines.

The quality of Creality’s 3D Printers and accessories shows through in their market history, with the brand selling around 3000 printers in their first year on the market, followed by about 10,000 sales over the next year. Now, Creality easily sells around 30,000 or more 3D printers each year, with sales continuously rising as they bring out more models. These are impressive numbers when considering the fact that they entered the industry as unknown competitors, quickly rising through the ranks and now even competing with Wanhao and similar top brands.

If you are looking for excellent 3D Printers that offer affordability without compromising on quality, Creality 3D is certainly a brand that you should take note of. From the basic Creality Ender 2 all the way up to the large build volume Creality CR-10 S5, there are few other brands who are capable of offering such a refined package while still maintaining some of the most enticing prices in the industry.
